Overview
Loading three bikes by the frame onto a folding hitch mast is how the Thule rack works. Adjustable heads grip each frame tube, ratchet straps hold the wheels, and the mast tilts down so the trunk still opens.
Owners get a light rack that fits both small and large receivers and takes many frame shapes in any order. Its per bike limit rules out most eBikes, and lock and anti sway details are not listed.
Who it's for
Families and riding groups heading to trails with regular bikes will appreciate the fold and tilt. eBike owners need a platform rack with a higher limit.
Pros and cons
- Fits both receiver sizes
- Wide frame tube range
- Tilts for trunk access
- Folds small for storage
- Too weak for most eBikes
- No lock mentioned
- Rack weight not listed
Performance notes
Stability depends on the heads clamping each frame securely and the wheel straps stopping swing. Capacity per bike limits heavier bikes. Folding and tilting rely on the mast pivot, which also sets clearance behind the car.
